Wouldn't be surprised if these were the proposals sent by McParland.

Well that leaves Rafa with no excuses.

Big backing by LFC towards Rafa this.

Well don't expect overnight miracles though. Clearly Rafa is planning long term and we may not see the fruits of his work at youth level for a few years yet, if he is given that time.

Dalglish set for Anfield role as Rafa shakes up his coaching staff

By Sportsmail Reporter Last updated at 9:50 PM on 27th May 2009


Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez is shaking up his backroom staff by dispensing with four of his coaches.

Gary Ablett is being replaced as reserve-team manager after three years. Another former player, Hugh McAuley, is also departing despite guiding the Under 18s to the FA Youth Cup final, where they lost to Arsenal.
Rolling back the years: Kenny Dalglish

Youth coaches Dave Lever and Dave Shannon are also leaving.

Frank McParland will return to oversee the backroom set-up and former Barcelona and Olympiakos coach Jose Segura is taking over as academy director.

Anfield legend Kenny Dalglish appears set to return to the club as adviser or ambassador.

Popular former midfielder Gary McAllister is also being linked with a coaching role.

We have seen massive improvement in the first team..

I think he's only gotten his way with regards to youth development fairly recently and the changes in youth development always takes longer to bear fruit, and i am guessing that's what the other posters are referring to..

And hey, it looks like the King is coming home! Yay!

The credit crunch has hit Melwood it seems.

Great news, we need to start afresh with the academy staff. We need to start producing some decent talent from what is one of the best if not the best academy set up in the world
